Comment:

 This is a very old ticket so I'm going to close in the hopes that you were
 able to resolve the problem long ago.

 Replying to [ticket:18791 hweber@…]:
 > scribus warning after scribus start:

 If you mean you see this right when you launch scribus, then I don't see
 that with either scribus @1.4.8 or scribus-devel @1.5.8, which hopefully
 means it was fixed.

 > ''Ghostscript: You cannot use EPS images or PrintPreview'''

 Searching the Internet for this error message, I found several sites
 mentioning that the solution is to go to the Preferences window, External
 Tools section, and at the top in the box labeled PostScript Interpreter,
 the field Name of Executable should have the path to the Ghostscript
 executable, `/opt/local/bin/gs`, in it. On my system, that happened
 automatically; if it didn't for you, that's the value you should fill in
 there, replacing `/opt/local` with your MacPorts prefix if it's different.
